Minor MLB Transactions: 1/30/19

By Jeff Todd | January 30, 2019 at 12:44pm CDT

We’ll use this post to track the day’s minor moves …

  • Joining the Pirates on a minor-league contract is right-hander Vicente Campos, according to John Dreker of Pirates Prospects. The contract includes an invitation to MLB camp. Once a rather well-regarded pitching prospect, Campos ran into injury and performance issues just as he was reaching MLB readiness. As things stand, he has just one appearance at the game’s highest level and has thrown only 46 total frames over the past two seasons. Dreker writes, though, that Campos has been clocked in the mid-nineties and found some success this winter in his native Venezuela.
  • The Dodgers added outfielder Ezequiel Carrera on a minors deal, per reports. Now 31 years of age, Carrera has seen action in seven MLB seasons and was a frequently-utilized reserve with the Blue Jays from 2016-17. Last year, though, he struggled quite a bit at the Triple-A level with the Braves and Mets organizations and failed to get a look at the majors.
  • Outfielder Mike Gerber was outrighted after clearing waivers, per the Giants. He’ll remain under control of the San Francisco organization after being claimed and then designated for assignment earlier in the offseason. The 26-year-old Gerber is only a .224/.286/.428 hitter in 334 Triple-A plate appearances but had posted strong numbers at every other level in the Tigers’ farm system.

    I’ll never forge Ezekiel Carrera. He was added via waivers by RAJ and took Ender Inciarte’s roster spot who was then returned to the D-Backs via Rule V Rules. Smh.

    Yup…. thanks Amaro…. I saw Inciarte quite a bit that spring and no reason we shouldn’t have kept him. Dumb. That’s why he coaches first base….

    Campos has the bloodlines if nothing else: Ronald Acuna, Alcides Escobar and Kelvim Escobar are all cousins of his.

      That would be more encouraging if he was a race horse.
